Liked: Staff & service
Staff was wonderful! Pool, spa and outdoor area were very nice. The room looked and felt like it hadn’t been updated since 1970. The room description and pictures had the same layout but no updates. I reserved a double queen suite and the hotel staff said none of those rooms have been updated and the hotel was no responsible for images posted by third party booking sites. I would NEVER have paid what I did for the room. The tv didn’t work, bathroom fixtures falling off, grossly stained carpet. Mildew smell. Wish I could get a credit from Hotels.com if the are responsible since for the false advertising. There is also no “spa” on site as advertised.
